Mannion G (2015) Mud pies and green spaces – why children do better when they can get outdoors, The Conversation, 15.6.2015.

Abstract:

First paragraph: The first warm weather here in the UK generally means a few things – the impending start of tennis at Wimbledon, school examination time, and the smell of cut grass. Inevitably, pupils and teachers start to wish they were outdoors and not stuck in a classroom. There is now a growing body of evidence why teachers should respond to these urges and incorporate outdoor places into their teaching and the school day more widely.
